Laid Off or Are Your Hours Cut?

This post raised some questions so I'm repeating it here.

Have you been laid off or have your hours been reduced?

There are a number of things you can do to supplement your income, or find a job quickly. At CarLotta Credit & Car Sales, we think this info can be very helpful.

* Start off by checking in with "Pa Unemployment Compensation", whether you are laid off or your hours cut, always the first stop. The link is below.

* The next thing to do is check "Craigs List". The job listings are extensive, they are free to employers, and are taking the place of the newspapers in many cases and job types. You have to check back every 2-3 days or so though, as they change often. Also, it takes a few minutes as you have to search thru them. Good source and they cover the entire NEPA region. Link is below.

* The old reliable is the newspaper. As you will see from the links, they even use on-line job services themselves.

Scranton Times / Citizens Voice / Hazleton Standard jobs link (all owned by same company)

* You also should check out "Spherion Staffing Services ", a temporary job service. The have offices in   NEPA. They are easy to deal with and it could be a neat option. click http://www.spherion.com/

Be sure to let your Customer Service Rep (570-714-1971) know that your job situation has changed. He will want to be aware so we can work with you if need be. Let me know what you think. Comment below.
